to make a better investment
My name is Paulina Payan, I am the company's master chef. I currently no longer work for the company for the following reasons that I will describe: my job only lasted 5 retreats from August to September and therefore they continue using my image, just as they used and abused my work and the work of some colleagues and service providers for Mr. Andrew Tansil.
Company owner, a dishonest, disrespectful person, lacking empathy, irresponsible, without any sense of professionalism, arrogant, racist with Mexicans and has no respect for his work team having us hungry, sleeping in poor conditions, exhausted from so many hours of work, threatened, confused, frustrated with his ways of working leading many of us to resign and service providers reaching lawsuits with the Mexican prosecutor's office and bringing police to the house to pay the services he owes when he has for each retirement start $ 55,000 thousand dollars from guests who come to do their experiences with lack of services at low prices and paying cheap wages with cheap labor to become millionaires with the hope of the people who come for a change of life and now that this project does not have a good direction and they must take their precautions, here is full of problems and he has many unpaid debts that will lead to serious problems and that is not safe for your trip here.
1. The ingredient suppliers don't want to work with your payment method and resigned this week from working for you and no longer supplying. It's not possible that they have to wait a week and a half when guests pay very well for your pick-up and immediate payment.
2. I can't and there's no reason for me to pay for your ingredients with my own money and I don't have a purchase fund to justify it with receipts.
3. We had agreed with Nara that the cooking classes are paid for, and I never received payment for them. You are aware that they are workshops and all workshops have an extra payment, which you wanted to save for your account.
4. I have to ask you for my payment based on lies and wait for it until you want it when you have an account with $55,000 thousand dollars...!!!!!! And being afraid that you want to owe me money and pay me whenever you want when my work is done, it's a lack of respect for my work and you don't value it.
5.- You limit help in the kitchen and only when you consider it necessary when you do not know the hard work in the kitchen, not only do you cook for guests, there are also staff and around 10/15 or even 20 meals per service. The kitchen must always have its chef and his assistant, not throw the chef into cooking, washing dishes, being in charge of the kitchen, and also the payment. I charge for catering $ 50 USD per person per service and offering good service, I receive less than half with a budget of $ 20 USD per person to provide breakfast, lunch and dinner and feed the staff in a luxury service ???? when guests pay $ 1000 dollars a night, for me there is no congruence or balance in your way of working, I demonstrated my work and I am satisfied with that but I will not allow misconduct or labor abuse and there is no respect and appreciation for my work.
I pointed these points out to him, and he ignored them, continuing his work, filled with unprofessionalism and lacking any empathy. He placed my colleagues and me in a work environment filled with threats and fear. Yet, some continued trying to shine a light on this path. I had to make a sudden and forced decision, afraid of not being paid for my work and efforts.
Atte.
